So it has been driven over a year and 10K miles after being fixed. I think is a good deal. Navigation on early B8's is useless anyways. You have to take it to a good mechanic to lift it and look under and check the body panels and paint. If no leak and motor runs smooth and no mechanical problems I wouldn't worry about the salvage title if everything else is as good as it looks.

Thanks all for the input. Given the miles and price I'm less worried about the title and options as i am the oil consumption.
(And poser-ness of the seat swap.)
We'll see, need to make some room in the driveway first anyways.

B6 A4 Avant Rear Bumper Aluminum Trim Strip - Wrapped in 3M Gloss Black Vinyl
Picked this up thinking it would fit on my Ultrasport, but I was wrong. Part is for standard bumper A4 B6 Avant's only.
Audi Part Number 8E9807443A3
Very good condition. Strip has a flaw in the aluminum finish that's slightly smaller than a dime in size, so I wrapped the entire piece in 3M Gloss Black Vinyl.
All mounting tabs are intact. No cracks in trim strip. Part sells for $290 on the ECS site. Otherwise, fairly hard to find.$40 shipped in the COTUS. Payment thru PayPal Friends & Family.

What appears to be a flaw in the middle of the trim strip is a reflection:

I'm going to be listing the avant up for sale soon, and I wanted to hear your thoughts on how to price it out. And if I should part out.

So the deets

2017 Audizine cover girl!!! lol
2006 S4 avant, manual with 108k on the clock. Second engine however. Block probably has about 80k on it but I can't prove it so its moot.
Has JHM Intermediate timing chain kit installed, as well as valve job done.
JHM longtube headers with the high-flow cats currently installed, but I also have the catless pipes to go with it.
Fast Intentions non-resonated cat-back exhaust
Air Lift performance suspension with V2 management
Full mesh front grille
Cuprazilla front lip
VMR wheels
R8 flat-bottom steering wheel
OEM roof rails
Heated front and rear seats
Clear cornered self leveling headlights (every once in a while I'll get a dipped headlight but it's rare.)
ECS crossdrilled and slotted rotors
Sides skirts that I forget the name of right now lol. The passenger side one is cracked.

So the bad.
I have an intermittent water leak coming into the cabin that I haven't quite been able to find. So, the carpet is sitting in my attic lol. I know it's coming from behind the dash on the drivers side, but I haven't been able to isolate it anymore. But I plan on getting this taken care of before I sell it, so that the interior can be put back together.
The front drivers seat left bolster is worn and there's a small tear.
Even with all the engine work, it still burns a bit of oil. Nothing insane, but it will go through a quart every 500 miles or so. If you can find an s4 that doesn't burn oil, that would be a minor miracle in my book.
Car was partially resprayed in the past year. Someone bumped into the rear bumper and tailgate so it got fixed and resprayed along with the hood, most of the roof and the drivers side rear fender. there was also some rust along the windshield line along the roof that was completely fixed. So new windshield as well.
Gas cover switch doesn't work.

I've done a lot to get her to a better place, but we have a kid on the way, and even though it's a wagon, it's not in our long term plans right now. I obviously would prefer not to remove the exhaust or suspension, but will if it makes more sense. I'd like to price it at 20k obo. What say you guys?

I wish you all the best with selling it for 20k but youll probably have to wait a long time for a right buyer to pay that much. Probably easier way would be bring it back to stock and sell it as a stock 6 speed avant with chains done. That water leak might be an issue for most of the people on here. Oil burning is a common thing on our cars, 1qt/500 miles is on a hight side but many cars do that. My engine depending on the oil used and driving habits gets between 1000 and 1500 miles between top offs. Anyways sad to see it go and again GLWS JJ!

No affiliation - 99.9% sure I test drove this (did an over night so had her for a day) when it was at a consignment dealer in Tigard back in January given color/mileage/options/engine work/roof rack etc. They wanted 15K and said wouldn't go below 14.5 so we couldn't make a deal but the car was nice.

Headlight selector was broken, so lights were on "auto" which was the only real flaw I saw.

As it says it had all the options, including blind spot monitoring and the rear door had the pull out sun shades which I didn't see on any other Audi I test drove before buying mine. Had video in motion enabled so it may have had other vag com goodies I was too new to the scene to look for. Wheels were clean, body was dent free and I crawled around underneath it and everything looked good. Just an FYI for anyone looking for sline/prestige.

Official Avants Only Classifieds Thread!

Not sure if anyone is interested in a project car but my neighbor has a 2003 A6 Avant with 180k+ miles. Minor body damage on the owner side. Bah just realized I forgot to grab a pic of that part lol. Rear bumper needs repaint. Otherwise body is in surprisingly decent shape. Only grabbed two pics.b I'll take more when I'm back in town if anyone is interested.

Anyways, motor runs, tranny is shot, needs exhaust. I think he said airbags are good but compressor isn't. Like I said project car lol.

Feel free to PM me if interested or serious. I'm only posting because it was his mother's and he's going to donate it.

I have a 2011 A4 Avant with 87k miles, 8spd auto, just had the timing chain redone and cylinder head rebuilt. Contemplating dumping it for an Alfa, would rather sell to an enthusiast instead of trading it in. It has a few dents/marks as it does daily duties, but comes with two sets of fresh tires and summer/winter wheels. Also have an OEM roof rack for it. For it to be worth it over me trading it, I'd need $9600. If anyone wants to chat or wants pics, PM me.
